In the Department of Animal Production and Technologies at Muş Alparslan University, there is a compulsory summer internship practice lasting 30 working days after the 4th semester. The internship application principles are based on the Compulsory Internship Directive of the Faculty of Applied Sciences. Announcements from the Faculty of Applied Sciences regarding internships should be closely followed.

Each class must act under the guidance of their own advisor in all procedures related to the internship. Any issues should first be resolved with the advisor.

Purpose of Internship: The internship aims to provide various benefits for students in the Animal Production and Technologies program. The objectives listed below will help students familiarize themselves with the business environment before graduation, engage in real-life projects related to their field, set appropriate goals, and take steps towards achieving those goals.

• Recognizing the agricultural and animal husbandry environments and preparing for professional life.
• Translating the theoretical knowledge acquired at the university into practical applications.
• Observing and examining the implementation stages of projects in which they are involved, and, if possible, actively participating in these projects.
• Developing effective communication skills to express themselves correctly in a professional setting.
• Accurately explaining and reporting on technical projects undertaken during the internship.
• Gaining exposure to various technologies and work areas not covered in their coursework.

To maximize the benefits of the internship, students are expected to find a suitable internship placement that contributes both technically and socially. Students must successfully complete a project at the internship site and document this project appropriately in their internship report.
